Independent professional services group Praxis has appointed Tarek El Moghrabi as Regional Head of Growth and Business Development for the GCC, strengthening its presence in a region emerging as a key hub for private and institutional capital.
El Moghrabi brings nearly 20 years of experience across the Middle East, London, and Luxembourg, supporting institutional investors, family offices, and private clients with fund administration, governance, and international structuring solutions. Based in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, where Praxis has operated for a decade, he will focus on expanding regional relationships, driving growth in fund and asset management, and enhancing the firm’s cross-border private wealth services.
The move comes as demand accelerates for sophisticated structuring, corporate, and funds services in the Middle East. El Moghrabi will also support broader client offerings, including end-of-service benefits and employee savings frameworks, in collaboration with James Barber-Lomax, Praxis’s Group Head of Pensions & Employer Solutions.
Praxis has held the first Trustee licence issued by the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority in 2016 and is the longest-standing holder of a Fund Administrator Licence in the freezone.
